Chapter 507: Unprecedented Pressure
Liu He stared closely at the eyes of the head of the Guo family, and after a long time, he suddenly smiled faintly, as if nothing had happened, hugged his fists and said goodbye, and turned away.
Seeing Liu He go downstairs, the young scholar standing at the door walked into the room.
"Did you hear what he just said?" The head of the Guo family asked in a calm tone.
The young scholar hurriedly took a few steps forward, bowed down and said, "I heard, the fine sand has been replaced with a bath, and the bamboo has been replaced by a crane and a tiger." ”
The head of the Guo family slowly stood up, walked to the window, looked at Liu He's distant figure, and suddenly said coldly.
"Remember, the crane should have white hair and red crown, and the tiger should have white eyes."
For three whole days, Liu He didn't go to the street again, he stayed in the backyard of the southeast building, sat by the well with Chen Mo in the morning, watched the big fierce sister serve his mothers with relish, fought a few poor words with the girls who had just gotten up at noon, chatted with the eldest sisters who read countless people in the afternoon, and waited for the evening, naturally to have a big drink with the brothers.
Liu He, who never left the backyard of the southeast building, seemed to be happy every day, but in fact, his heart was not easy.
The seemingly peaceful, but arrogant face of the head of the Guo family has always been in his mind.
Liu He knew that this was the other party putting pressure on him.
Since entering Liu Beijun, Liu He has never personally felt this kind of pressure.
In the Tianji Camp that he founded single-handedly, no one can shake his power, and no one can shake his position.
The reason why Liu He chose to stay in Tianji Camp at the beginning, rather than interfering in political affairs with Zhuge Liang, was precisely because he didn't want to participate in those battles in the officialdom.
For Liu He, that kind of secret deception is like a mosquito in summer, endlessly buzzing in his ears, which is irritating, even if he kills one, as soon as he turns over in bed, another one will appear again.
Being able to avoid those upsetting officialdom battles made Liu He feel very lucky, but this time, he couldn't hide even if he wanted to.
The Guo family, a wealthy family ranked among the four major families in Yingchuan, the Guo family's talker, I don't know how many characters can call the wind and rain in the government and the opposition in this life.
Perhaps there are few people in this world who are more proficient in officialdom than him.
His wrist, Liu He has also been taught.
The Tianyi Pavilion in Yingchuan, the third floor that is easy to reach, the private room that can change the layout at any time, the young scholar who is always waiting quietly outside the door, but knows nothing.
These things all illustrate the same thing, the old man sitting alone at the table has stood at the top, overlooking the officialdom of the entire Han Dynasty.
Now, for the sake of the rise and fall of the family, the old man is ready to come forward in person and bring the young man who was pinned on high hopes back to the Guo family.
For the deep-rooted Guo family, Liu He did not have a full grasp of how to deal with it, and for the seemingly gentle old man, Liu He had a faint fear in his heart.
But there is only one thing, Liu He will not give in the slightest.
Unless Qian is willing, no one in this world can let him leave the Tianji Camp.
Don't say that you are the head of a family, even if the emperor Lao Tzu comes, you can't do it!
Liu He, who didn't go out for three days and didn't give the head of the Guo family another chance, also didn't leave a way out for himself.
But what should come will always come, looking at the young scholar standing respectfully outside the door of the backyard of the southeast building, Liu He's state of mind was unusually calm.
Lao Qian didn't say anything to me, but how can you prove that you are his biological father?
This kind of almost scoundrel rhetoric has become a belief in supporting Liu He, and perhaps only this kind of absurd behavior that jumps out of etiquette and does not matter what is usual can make that scheming guy feel tricky.
On the third floor of Tianyi Pavilion, Liu He has come for the third time, but this time, his steps are unprecedentedly heavy.
With this heaviness, the corners of Liu He's mouth suddenly showed a smile, and an inexplicable excitement poured out of his heart like a surging tide.
This feeling was had in front of the longboard slope, and that time, he did not let a brother die under Cao Cao's iron hooves.
This feeling was felt in Dingjun Mountain, and that time, he did not let a single enemy soldier rush out of the valley he was guarding alive.
This feeling was had in the Xuchang Palace, and that time, he didn't let his beloved woman stay in that deep palace and cry alone.
At this moment, this feeling was clearly circling in his mind again, churning in his heart, this time, he would never let his brother live that kind of unwanted life.
Facing the head of the Guo family who was about to have a showdown with him, in the face of the unprecedented pressure, Liu He's eyes shone with an unusually determined look.
It's just that when he saw the furnishings in the room, that firmness instantly vanished.
The white-haired and red-crowned crane, and the white-eyed white-fronted tiger, seemed to be announcing something to Liu He.
In the face of the head of the Guo family in front of him, who could do whatever he wanted, all the struggles and resistance were to no avail.
The only choice may be to bow down and enter the layout that the other party has already laid out, as long as there is still value in existence, at least it will not become an outcast.
"The gentleman is really very insightful, and even the gentleman himself seems to be moved by it."
The head of the Guo family slowly stood up, and immediately two maids came over and untied his wide clothes.
Looking at the head of the Guo family who entered the bath naked, Liu He's face was cloudy for a while.
Behind the head of the Guo family, a clearly visible greed flashed in the eyes of the white-fronted tiger, and it seemed that he was ready to swallow this guy who didn't know the height of the sky at any time.
But the head of the Guo family didn't even look at the tiger, but turned his head to look at Liu He with a smile.
"If the gentleman is not used to having someone around, the old man will let them out."
In the eyes of the head of the Guo family, who thinks he is superior, the biggest difference between those people from humble backgrounds and him is that he has long been accustomed to the fact that others come to serve him.
"Some people are born to be served, while others are born to serve others. I don't know what kind of person is it, sir? ”
The head of the Guo family smiled playfully, and seemed to enjoy this kind of mental torture to the other party.
Liu He's expression was calm, and he stood aside silently, never saying a word.
He noticed that the tiger behind the head of the Guo family couldn't hold it anymore, and it might pounce on the guy who was naked in the pool at any time.
